Rnd 2, #enduroGP 2021 - #Edolo, Italy
Enjoying a successful debut #enduroGP appearance last year at the final round of the series in Portugal, #manuellettenbichler showed that he has impressive classic #enduro pace, and the skills to mix it with the best. Now, returning to the FIM #enduro World Championship for a second time, Manuel hopes to use the #Event to further increase his out-and-out speed in preparation for the restart of the FIM Hard #enduro World Championship in July.
Looking to carry the pace and momentum that took him to a double Enduro2 podium result last weekend in Portugal, Josep Garcia comes into round two eager to win and focused on performing consistently in Italy. With #Edolo situated northeast of Bergamo – the home of KTM Farioli – the #Event is an extremely important one for the factory team, where both Lettenbichler and Garcia will be aiming to impress in front of their loyal fans.
Running from 25-27 June, round two of the 2021 FIM #enduro World Championship will be held in #Edolo, Italy. Similarly, to the first round, #racing will get underway on the Friday night with the Super Test, followed by two full days of #racing where riders will face an #enduro test, cross test, extreme test, and four laps of 30 kilometers.
Manuel Lettenbichler: “Returning to #enduroGP, it’s going to be good. I’ll be #racing on a 450 EXC-F, so that’s going to be something new for me. It’s not the bike I ride the most, but I’m looking forward to it. Also, to be returning to #enduroGP is going to be cool, especially in Italy. Last year I had a great time #racing in Portugal, and last weekend’s #Event there looked great, so I’m excited for it. There’s not so much pressure on me, but I will for sure do my best and try to get the very best result out of it. The pace of the top guys in #enduroGP is insane, but I’m looking forward to being in #Edolo and #racing with the guys. It’s going to be a great way for me to get back into #racing, as the following weeks and months are going to be super busy, starting with Abestone and Red Bull Romaniacs. It’s going to be fun, and I know it’s going to be a great #Event.”
Josep Garcia: “I had a solid weekend in Portugal, but it wasn't quite what I had expected. My pace was good, but I was pushing too hard in places and ended up making a few mistakes. The times at the top are so close that even losing a few seconds can be the difference between finishing on the podium or not. I'm looking forward to #racing in Italy, the Events are always good there. It's a new weekend, a new race, but the goal is still the same and that is to top my class. I have a good idea of the things I need to work on, so I'll try my best to stay consistent, and hopefully improve a little from round one.”
